django.utils module import error in appengine 1.7.

Question

I just updated to 1.7.6 appengine and started getting ImportError for django.utils, my app is using python 2.5 and had no issues running before this update.

Any idea if this was removed in the update?

line 1, in <module>
from django.utils import simplejson
ImportError: No module named django.utils

If you're not able to upgrade to 2.7, try using old_dev_appserver.py instead of dev_appserver.py.
